SpeclaI TO the Globe.
MANKATo, Minn., May 29.-Rev. A.
ID. Bushnell preached the annual ser
mon to the graduating class of the Nor
NAL school in the Congregational church
this morning. He preached most elo-
quent and instructive sermon, which,
though addressed to the members of the

crowded house before him. The grad
yates, instructors and officials of the
school occupied the front pews, while
the balance of the large assembly room
OF the church was filled with a select
audience. Class tree exercises will be
held tomorrow afternoon on. the
campus with the usual ceremonies.

ions have been sent out by the class.

MORE COPIOUS RAINS
Reported in Most of the Agricul-
tural Centers.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-Following is
the weather crop bulletin issued by the
signal office to-day for the week ending
May 2S: mperature-During the
week ending May 2S the weather has
been slightly warmer than usual in the
Mississippi valley, and thence westward
to the Pacific coast, and from Southern
New England westward over New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio The
week has been slightly cooler than
usual in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Virginia
and the S9uth Atlantic states. but i'm
all agricultural districts east of the
Rocky mountains the average tenn
,perature for the week differs
slightly from the normal. In
Oregon, and Washington territories and
Northern California the excess of tenn
perature ranges from 25o tO5Oo. The
season from Jan. to May IS has been

ginia. Frequent showers occurred in
the corn and wheat regions, where the
total rainfall for the week, although
Wen distributed, was slightly be-
favored by rainfalls in excess of the
normal, especially in the Western por-
tions. Owing to the favorable distribu-
ton of the rainfall the reasonable de-
ficiency of ten to fifteen inches appears
as yet uninjuri0us in the cotton regions.
throughout the entire agricultural dis
trlcts the weather has proved especially
favorable for the growing crops; and
the reports Sunday morning, May 90,
show that favorable conditions of rain
fall and temperature yet continue, ex-
cept in Michigan, Illinois and Mime
sofa, where the needed showers are
to-day predicted.

CATCHING NO FIsR
The President Having no Luck
With the Finny Tribe.

PROSPECT House, n. Y, May 90
The president on Saturday had day OF
most dismal weather. He made his
first fishing excursion, but his spsual
good luck did not attend him. He came
over from his cabin soon after o'clock
i'll the morning with Mrs. Cleveland,
each wearing suit of corduroy. The
presidents short sack coat over a gray
flannel shirt gave him very sportsman
like appearance. Mrs. Cleveland's cos
tune was a close fitting one, very be-
coming and complete, with sailor hat.
Col. and Mrs. Lamont Joined the pIresii-
dent and his wife at breakfast, which
was eaten in the public dining-room at
the Saranac inn. At II o'clock Dave
Cronk, the guide, got out the presi-
dents new forty-five-pound pine boat
built by him for the presidents use, ,and
with the president went off down the
lake. Col. Lamont, also accompanied
by another guide, followed in another
boat. Both boats returned three hours
later. The president and his secretary
found the wind unfavorable and did not
try very hard to catch anything. AT all
events they did not get any fish. An
other trip on the lake was made in the
evening with no better results. There
was brilliant sunset, with prospects OF
fine weatherSunday ,and the fine weather
came according to promise, the sun
rising in a sky obscured only by fieecy
clouds that rested at the tops of the
most distant mountain peaks. There
were few early risers at the Saranac
inn. The presidents party breakfasted
at 10 o'clock, the president and secretary
appearing in the camping costumes they
wore Saturday. Mrs. Cleveland were
tailOr-made suit of black and cardinal
felt hat, about which a quantity of white
MULE was twisted. Mrs. Lamont's dress
was close-fitting one of gray, and she
wore gray felt hat with a blue band.
The president strolled about the hotel,
chatted with the guests and rested
quietly at his cottage until 2 O'Clock,
when he and his party joined the other
guests in the general dining room.
There were no excursions or fishing eX-
peditions to-day. The ladies went to the
little chapel not far from the hotel, and
in the absence of clergyman held a
little singing service for an hour. The
president expects to have some good
sport tomorrow.

Preached to 10000.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-Mr. Talmage
preached to an audience Of 10000 in the
White lot this afternoon. His texts
were 1 Chronicles xiii, SO ''Fifty
thousand which could STEP" and
Judges Xxx, 10:" Every one could sling
stones at half breadth and not miss"
Both passages combined, he said, teach
us that if we must fight we ought to do
it well. His sermon was largely COM
pafison between the days of 1862 and
the present. The Marine band, which
led with voluntary, gave sacred con-
cert after the sermon, and at 5io'ciock
the troops were brought on for dress
parade. About 1000 men were. in line.
The weather was fine, and everything

MERRITT's CORNER, N. Y, May 90
This morning one of Brown, Howard &
Co.'s shanties at Shaft No. 2, croton

five men were sleeping in it at the time.
All escaped except two, James Con-

burned beyond recognition. Michael
Baker escaped safely, but returned for
his pocketbook containing $50 and was
burned so badly that he will probably
die. James MCGEE was also badly
burned.

Has 60 Say Concerning Attacks
Made on Him.
Special TO the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 29.-Commis-
sioner of Indian Affairs Atkins says:
Il have taken little notice of the
partisan attacks upon me. The policy
of the bureau has been honest and all
the Investigations in the world cannot
demonstrate anything else. The books
showing the operations of my admins
tration are open to congress at any time.
| will not be interviewed except as to
one thing. l want to deny that any
member of ms family or of my wife'S
family has been appointed by me. Only
one relative ever applied for position,
and promptly refused to grant the re-
quest. Some traders have been crooked,
but they were Immediately re-
moved, regardless of politics. The
bureau is not as corrupt as it once was.
During the past eight. years
mics have brought traders and
agents nearer to the department. The last
. Republican administration was purer
than formerly, and the present ad-
ministration is almost above re-
proach, because of the less facilities
for maladministration. The whole serv-
ice is more closely scanned. Tempta-
tons less and crimes less"
"Do you regard recent attacks as per-
sonal to yOurSelf?"
"Certainly l do. But L well know
that back of them is the animus of par
tisanship attacking the president
through his officers. Still it is personal
to myself"
; ''Will you make any public reply?"
II hope that the Platt Investigating
committee will publish the result OF
its labors. That will be sufficient
reply. they have discovered nothing
wrong. But if they do not make the
report public, my report to congress
through Secretary Lamar will be all [
need to say in reply to charges made"
. Have you made any improper ap-
pointments!"
$ Il have. But as soon'as the discovery
was made, removals have been
ordered instantly and in every
instance. 1t is impossible for any
bad man to remain in the Indian
Office long in these days. No party
could afford to cloak wrongs. Noindi-
vidual can afford to do so. No sensible
man will charge sane man with NAL
teasance in this office. 1t is sheer non
sense. The work done by the investigat-
ing committee may benefit the Office by
legislation next winter, but no harm
comes of investigation. Glad it was
made. 1t sheds light upon the Indian
business and reflects credit upon the
administration"

just reward.
Pardon me then, if in giving a short
statement of this work being commem-
Grated here to-day, revert to data of
years gone by. The summer and fall of
1872 was busy one in this city and
witnessed large influx of people, many
of whom are still with us. Numerous
mills were built, creating demand for
coopers, and from this sprang the
Coopers' union. They were followed
later in the fall by the Printers
union, and the succeeding winter
inc operating millers organized, but
were content with local organization.

each body, very similar to the present
Trades assembly. The body was off
eered by Ed A. O'Brien, G. W. Curtiss,
your chief marshall of to-day, and j.
HI. Jones, of the millerS. And what was
the object of this association? To pro-
tect trade, educate its members and to
establish Il library for the free use of
all. However, the millerS' organization
was not strong enough to hold up and
drawing out of the federation went to
pieces. Then came the exciting sum-
